You have some options to handle this deprecation the right  and future proof  way  depending on which kind of drawable you are loading     A  drawables with theme attributes  ContextCompat getDrawable getActivity    R drawable name     You ll obtain a styled Drawable as your Activity theme instructs  This is probably what you need     B  drawables without theme attributes  ResourcesCompat getDrawable getResources    R drawable name  null     You ll get your unstyled drawable the old way  Please note  ResourcesCompat getDrawable   is not deprecated     EXTRA  drawables with theme attributes from another theme  ResourcesCompat getDrawable getResources    R drawable name  anotherTheme

Edit  see my blog post on the subject for a more complete explanation    You should use the following code from the support library instead   ContextCompat getDrawable context  R drawable        Using this method is equivalent to calling   if  Build VERSION SDK INT  gt   Build VERSION CODES LOLLIPOP        return resources getDrawable id  context getTheme       else       return resources getDrawable id       As of API 21  you should use the getDrawable int  Theme  method instead of getDrawable int   as it allows you to fetch a drawable object associated with a particular resource ID for the given screen density theme  Calling the deprecated getDrawable int  method is equivalent to calling getDrawable int  null

For some who still got this issue to solve even after applying the suggestion of this thread i used to be one like that  add this line on your Application class  onCreate   method  AppCompatDelegate setCompatVectorFromResourcesEnabled true   As suggested here and here sometimes this is required to access vectors from resources especially when you re dealing with menu items  etc
